Organic Compounds
What is an organic compound?
Any compound with carbon in it
What is the function of the nucleus?
To store the cell's DNA and coordinate its growth
The maintenance of a constant internal environment in response to changes in the conditions of the external or internal environment is known as _____
Homeostasis
What is the name of the energy molecule that cells use?
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
What is the reactant and product of glycolysis?
The reactant is glucose and the product is pyruvate.
What are the 4 types of biological macromolecules?
Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, Nucleic Acids
Cell wall or chloroplasts
The movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane into a region of a higher concentration, assisted by enzymes and requiring energy is known as ______.
What is the job of enzymes?
Photosynthesis is the way that plants are able to feed themselves. Animals don't need that, they have free will and free movement.
What is the monomer of proteins?
Amino acids
Which organelle is responsible for making protein?
Ribosome(s)
The movement of ions and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without the need of energy input is called _________
Passive transport
What happens to an enzyme when the temperature increases? What about when it decreases?
When the temperature increases, the reaction speeds up. When the temperature decreases, the reaction slows down.
Does aerobic respiration happen in plants, animals, or both?
Aerobic respiration happens in both, because they're both living organisms.
What is the function of carbohydrates?
To provide energy
This organelle modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for secretion
What is the golgi apparatus
This is when something is moved from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
Diffusion
Each enzyme has an optimum pH range. What happens when you change the pH for an enzyme?
When you change the pH outside of the optimum range, it slows down enzyme activity
What is the overall equation/formula, in words, for photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide+water+energy from light produces glucose and oxygen
What is the polymer of nucleic acids?
DNA/RNA molecules
Cells that do not have a nucleus are known as ______
Prokaryotic cells
When the molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated, equalizing the concentrations on each side of the cell membrane, it's called _________.
Put the 4 stages of enzymes performing its function in order:
(a) Enzyme breaks up and becomes the enzyme/product complex
(b) the enzyme and products are leaving the active site
(c) the enzyme and substrate are in the same area
(d) the enzyme and substrate are entering the active site
The correct order is: D, C, A, B
What are the reactant and products for the Calvin Cycle in photosynthesis?
The reactant is carbon dioxide, the product is glucose.
